About
Hi! My name is Jerry and I am the Scoutmaster of Troop 664 in Gresham, OR.
A while back someone told me to write stuff down, to share my Scouting experience with other people. And so I created a blog. You can read it here.
That blog lead to some folks asking me to try my hand at podcasting, and that is where this site came from.
I suppose to let you know a bit about me, I have been in Scouting nearly all my life. I had the best opportunities to be a Scout as a youth in the Transatlantic Council while we lived in Holland. It was Scouting like you can not imagine. Later we
moved to Louisiana were Scouting took a sharp turn to an adventure in Backpacking. This led to a life long love of Backpacking and the rest as they say is History.
One day, my oldest Son brought home a flyer to join Cub Scouts and our Scouting life started up again. I have been an adult leader since then.
I have enjoyed serving as a Den leader, Cubmaster, and now the most rewarding position of all, Scoutmaster.

Keeping the boys busy is great advice. A wise old scouter gave me some advise and said to keep a box handy with puzzles (cross word, wooden, and metal - like the bent nails). Keeps the idle mind busy.

Another great show Jerry. I totally agree with the keeping the boys busy approach to fighting homesickness.
